Lip reading classes in Trafford

Trafford Hard of Hearing Group run Lipreading classes on Thursdays for the hard of hearing at approx. £3 per class at 2 different venues.

There are often vacancies in our daytime Thursday Lipreading classes at St Matthew's Hall Stretford, 10.30am-12.30pm and 1pm-3pm.

We also run an evening class at Altrincham Town Hall 6pm - 8pm which is aimed mainly at those in employment and which has a short waiting list

All the Lipreading classes are now mixed level, we no longer have a beginners only class - so there are some newer people and some who have been coming for a while. The group is very friendly.

Trafford Hard of Hearing Group relies on grants and fundraising so ask for £30 a term(approx £3 donation per class) which is payable termly in advance for 9, 10 or 11 lessons. The fees help to cover the cost of hiring Mary Allison, the qualified tutor, paying for the venues and providing drinks & biscuits, etc.

We had been fortunate last year in obtaining a grant from the Big Lottery Fund.

The classes are for people who have a hearing loss or difficulty and are ongoing. People come and stay for as long as they need to.

Some people stay for a term, a year, others come for longer.

If you are interested, please let me know the nature of your hearing difficulty and which class you have a preference for.
